VICTORIA — Nine months ago, Elenore Sturko told BC Conservative Leader John Rustad on social media that he needed to"make an unequivocal apology" for calling homosexuality a"lifestyle" and having"doubled down in his ignorance."
Sturko said in an interview she now believes the curriculum known as SOGI 123 has eroded parental trust in public education. "Elenore’s decision to run for a party that is so out of line with her values and priorities in a new riding is shocking, and shows she cares more about her pension than her principles," he said in a written statement, providing a collection of social media attacks by Sturko on her new party and some of its members' attacks on her.
"I think this is the right decision to make," Sturko said."And I have the best interest of British Columbians in mind when I'm doing this." Rustad said in a statement that Sturko would be a terrific addition to the Conservative team, and a practical example of the grassroots coalition he said was growing across the province.
